Sant’Agata Bolognese, 9 June 2017 – Automobili Lamborghini has significantly expanded its prototype and pre-series vehicle development areas, as part of the ongoing production facility growth in readiness for its Super SUV, the Urus. The existing building has been extended from 5.000 m2 to 7.000 m2.
A new acoustic test room, part of the overall expansion, was officially inaugurated with the attendance of Stefano Domenicali, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Maurizio Reggiani, Board Member for Research and Development of Automobili Lamborghini.
The sound of a Lamborghini represents one of the most emotive experiences attached to the super sports car marque. The acoustic test room, which has been realized according to the latest technical standards, allows adjustment of particular sound sensations in order to create the typical Lamborghini driving experience, involving all the senses.
In line with Lamborghini’s continual quest for innovative solutions, the new facility also supports the acoustic adjustment of lightweight construction components, one of Lamborghini’s core competences. The new facility will additionally play an important role in the realization of future vehicle concepts and drive train systems.

Sant’Agata Bolognese, 13 July 2016 – Lamborghini launches the Ad Personam Studio at its historic Sant’Agata Bolognese headquarters: an area dedicated entirely to the company's customization program, which enables each customer to create his or her very own, Lamborghini.
The Ad Personam Studio is located in the heart of the company's production facility, and its concept and furnishings inspired by creative spaces and design studios. It is designed to offer Lamborghini customers the unique experience of being aided by an Ad Personam specialist at every step of the process, in order to select colors, interior trim and the materials of their future super sports car.
Before specifying their car, the prospective owner visits the factory on a guided tour, so he or she can view possible configurations on actual Huracán and Aventador models. Next, the customer is hosted in the sophisticated yet minimal atmosphere of the Ad Personam Studio, which includes displays of leathers, colors, materials, seats and rims, and includes an advanced car configurator for digital simulation of possible options. The lounge area is also used for displaying the particular Lamborghini model ordered by the customer.
The Ad Personam program is available for both Huracán and Aventador. As one of the company's strategic offerings, the program not only ensures the best possible customer experience, but also enhances the product and brand in a broader sense.
Ad Personam began in 2006 and was expanded in 2013 with the creation of a dedicated team consisting of representatives from the company's principal departments. The goal of the Ad Personam group of specialists is to provide a tailored consulting service that aids each customer in choosing colors, materials, trim and accessories, which meet the stylistic criteria of the Lamborghini marque and are consistent with its stringent quality and safety standards.
Since 2013, more than 50 new Ad Personam exterior colors have been developed, and the option of applying two-tone paint and livery has been introduced. The number of possible combinations of colors and materials for the interior has also been increased. New materials have even been added, such as different types of Alcantara to enhance sporty components of the car interior and new fine leathers like the semi-aniline leather to enhance the luxurious feeling of the interior.
One of the most high-tech and in-demand Ad Personam materials is Forged Composite, an innovative carbon fiber material patented by Lamborghini and offered on both the roof and the interior and exterior details of the Aventador.
In the first half of 2016 more than 50% of Lamborghini super sports cars delivered were customized with the Ad Personam option – a percentage that has tripled over the past three years. The Aventador is undoubtedly the most customized model: the privilege of a clientele that is more sensitive to the exclusiveness and uniqueness of their purchase.

St. Petersburg/Sant’Agata Bolognese, September 7, 2017 – “Lamborghini. Design Legend” is opening at the Erarta Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in St. Petersburg. The exhibition tells the story behind the design tradition of the House of the Raging Bull, from its founding to the present day. Visitors will be able to view some of the most iconic models from the brand’s history, displayed alongside paintings created by the Lamborghini Centro Stile, immersing themselves in a journey through an evolution of forms and styles that were not only ahead of their time, but also set a new standard for the automotive world. Lamborghini design is a highly innovative language, which flowed from the pen and the creative genius of great masters of design such as Marcello Gandini.
In the words of Stefano Domenicali, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Automobili Lamborghini, “We are truly pleased to have received this invitation from the Erarta Museum. An exhibition dedicated to our design confirms the extraordinary contemporary nature and revolutionary scope of Lamborghini's stylistic language. We wish Erarta much success for this exhibition, reflecting the success our vehicles are enjoying in the world. We are glad that a noble and beautiful city such as St. Petersburg, imbued with an Italian flavor thanks to Palladio, can serve as the backdrop for it.”
As Erarta’s Director of Communications, Ekaterina Atoyan-Milyukova, stated, “Lamborghini's design evolution and technological innovations have become not only a part of the history of the automotive world, but a part of the history of art itself. Each Lamborghini model, with its cultural significance and authenticity, has the quality of a true work of art. The Erarta Museum is therefore pleased to welcome the prestigious Italian car company Lamborghini, whose exhibition is further proof of our ongoing commitment to exhibiting the finest examples of contemporary art.”
The company’s history is told through 5 vehicles and 6 style models, illustrating the journey from the aristocratic elegance of its beginnings (perfectly embodied by a 400 GT with a 1965 body by Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera) to the 1966 revolution in taste and technology represented by the Miura (the first Gandini masterpiece with a body by Carrozzeria Bertone). A Centenario, created in 2016 by Centro Stile Lamborghini under the guidance of Mitja Borkert, provides the link to the Lamborghini design of today.
The exhibition is further enriched by the presence of two large-scale canvases (5×2 m), one depicting the Countach and the other the Centenario, executed by one of Lamborghini’s designers.
The exhibition also features engines, including the one that was the ten-time winner of the World Powerboat Championship, and the company’s contemporary racing activities represented by a rare Diablo GT and a Gallardo Super Trofeo.
The exhibition, which will be the first held in a newly opened wing of the museum, will run from 8 September to 17 December.

New brand environment heralds forthcoming SUV and increased volumes “Lamborghini and our dealer partners are investing in a bright future”, says Automobili Lamborghini CEO Stefano Domenicali​Sant’Agata Bolognese/Bristol, UK, 22 September 2016 – Automobili Lamborghini is preparing its international dealer network for the future, with the launch of a new dealership corporate identity and brand environment.
The first dealership to sport the new showroom design and service center officially opens today in Bristol, increasing the UK dealer network to eight outlets. The new corporate design will roll-out worldwide to all new and existing showrooms over the next years.
The new showroom environment reflects the need for increased space as Lamborghini expands its model line-up and doubles sales with the launch of its new SUV by 2018.
“Lamborghini is a strong, highly-acclaimed brand worldwide, and our new dealership environment is a very tangible demonstration of this, perfectly communicating our philosophies of Pure, Visionary and Cutting Edge,” said Automobili Lamborghini Chief Executive Officer, Stefano Domenicali. “It is also important that we continue to build a solid, committed dealer network that clearly communicates our brand to loyal and new clients in both the way we look and the way we operate. Both Lamborghini and our dealer partners are investing in a bright future.”
The new showroom exteriors are instantly recognizable by the illuminated Lamborghini shield on a black background that glows at night, and complemented by a black totem sporting the Lamborghini bull logo. The new showroom space is bright and clean, characterized by polygons, sharp forms, raw surfaces and a diffusion of light and color. Opportunities to literally ‘touch and feel’ the world of Lamborghini include digital elements to enhance the customer experience: a client lounge includes a car configuration system to guide the customer through specifying his Lamborghini; product and Ad Personam areas provide samples of exterior and interior finishes and allow clients to physically touch and play with combinations of colors and materials, such as soft leathers or the appearance of carbon fiber.
The range of Lamborghini models is displayed, with a car on a white center-stage uplit by LED lights in a complementary color to its exterior. Video walls give clients and even passers-by an insight into the world of Lamborghini. An area dedicated to Accessori Originali displays aftersales enhancements, and includes a digital experience with headphones and screen to explore and even hear product features such as engine sounds. The Collezione Automobili Lamborghini range of clothing and accessories has a dedicated space in the entrance, visible from both inside and through the showroom windows.

Sant'Agata Bolognese / Seattle (WA), June 20, 2016 – Automobili Lamborghini is celebrating the grand opening for the new Seattle-based carbon fiber research facility, the Advanced Composite Structures Laboratory (ACSL).
Operating as an entity outside of the company's headquarters in Sant'Agata Bolognese, the ACSL is responsible for unlocking new potential in carbon fiber. The breakthroughs that take place here go on to influence developments in Lamborghinis of the future. The official grand opening of the new ACSL also marks the 30th anniversary of Lamborghini's use of carbon fiber reinforced polymer in its vehicles.
“Carbon fiber is a material that Lamborghini has a long history with. Starting with the Countach Quattrovalvole and continuing today, it is one of the most important keys to the success of our cars in the past, present and future,” said Stefano Domenicali, Automobili Lamborghini Chief Executive Officer.
Seattle is a strategic location for the ACSL, particularly because of its collaboration with Boeing in working toward carbon fiber innovations that are beneficial in both automotive and aerospace applications.
“Seattle is a nexus for innovation and Lamborghini's choice to base its carbon fiber research center here reflects that,” Washington State Gov. Jay Inslee said, “Lamborghini's Advanced Composite Structures Laboratory, their continued success in developing breakthrough technology, and their collaboration with Boeing is a benefit and a point of pride for the city and the state of Washington.”
Forged Composite® is one of the most important developments to come from research within the ACSL which shortens the amount of production time required to form components by comparison the traditional labor techniques.
The technology made its debut in 2010 with the Sesto Elemento limited series supercar where it served in a structural capacity and as proof of how capable the rapid-formed material is. Such continued refinements in the manufacturing process have allowed Lamborghini to enhance its finished product for structural and aesthetical application in 2013.
“By continuing to develop our patented Forged Composite materials, we are able to create a product that can enhance Lamborghini super sports cars in both their performance and their appearance,” said Maurizio Reggiani, Board Member, R&D. “The ability to leverage this kind of lightweight material gives Lamborghini an advantage that will benefit our cars – as well as production process – in the future.”
Lamborghini's dedication to leading the industry in carbon fiber innovation goes beyond material development through the ACSL to find and recruit young, talented engineers from around the world.
Lamborghini debuted the latest car to showcase its mastery of carbon fiber during the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. The Centenario, which was on display for the exclusive event, is available in a body made of fully exposed carbon fiber.
Meant to mark what would have been company founder Ferruccio Lamborghini's 100th birthday, the Centenario is a marriage between acknowledgements of past milestones and technological “firsts.” Appropriately, it is only available in a very limited production run of 20 coupes and 20 Roadsters.

Sant’Agata Bolognese/Boston, 18 October 2016 – Automobili Lamborghini has signed an agreement with the MIT-Italy Program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The agreement marks the start of a collaboration between these two outstanding entities for the creation of a project that intends to write an important page in the future of super sports cars for the third millennium.
This strategic partnership will enable students and the teaching staff at MIT and Lamborghini engineers to compare notes and work together on mutually interesting, cutting-edge research projects, focusing primarily on new materials in the automotive field, with exchange, collaboration projects and workshops leading to joint research in the chosen fields.
The partnership represents a step into the future for the automotive industry, with the ultimate aim of paving the way for a very ambitious project, namely a super sports car ready for the challenges of the third millennium.

Stefano Domenicali, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of Automobili Lamborghini:”We want people to think of us more and more as a trendsetter in the super luxury and sports car segment. MIT has always been a pioneer in innovation and we are proud to have signed this general agreement with such an illustrious institution, which will lead to the study of issues of mutual interest relating to the super sports car for the 3rd millennium”.
Serenella Sferza, Co-director of MIT-Italy Program:”MIT-Italy is a two way bridge linking MIT and Outstanding Names in Italian Industry. It is hard for us to imagine a better partner than Lamborghini, and we are looking forward to the projects that this partnership will help us develop”.
Armando Varricchio, Italian Ambassador to the United States:”The partnership between the Massachusetts Institute of Technology via the MIT-Italy Program and Lamborghini represents a new and important step in sealing the cooperation between Italian industry and American research, confirming the strong and mutual interest linking them and the potential for further growth. Italian technology is confirming its status among the top ranking countries in the world, capable of successfully standing its ground in a competitive market like the United States”.
Michele Scannavini, Chairman of ICE:”Last year, Italian technology in general came first in terms of overall trade with the USA, with a share of 30%. Italy’s huge export capacity resides in the strength of its SMEs and associated clusters, the one at Bologna ranking among the most important ones; agreements like this with Lamborghini are proof of the undisputed excellence of our industries in the field of innovation”.
